Under a darkening sky
A floundering albatross fluttering by
Sullen and closing its eye
Tumbling downward it falters and dies
Solemnly fading to stone
Dead star calling it home

Bound to a withering star
Burdened with anchors of feather and bone
Dimming and wilting to gray
Crumbling slowly and breaking away
Solemnly fading to stone
Dead star calling you home

Eager and green, you stripped everything
Cut to the bone, and left it to bleed
Drowning in dust, you're standing alone
Wasting away, dying

Dead star calling me home
